  • Michele

    What a beautiful farmhouse. Clean, cosy, well equipped and very tastefully decorated. Unlimited logs, lovely hot tub, enclosed garden and walks galore on the doorstep. Hosts are fabulous. A very relaxed week. We will definitely return. Thanks for a wonderful stay x.

    The hosts are so helpful and everything was perfect from start to finish.

  • Paul

    The kitchen was one of the best equipped that we have stayed in. Would happily stay again if we are vacationing in the area again.
